IAI Pre-Registration Deadline Approaches

If you have thought about taking part in a week of meetings, lectures, and workshops for forensic-identification professionals—the International Association for Identification’s 96th International Educational Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin—you may want to make your decision now: The pre-registration deadline is Thursday, July 7.

The President’s Welcome Reception and some committee meetings are on Sunday, August 7. Lectures and workshops begin on Monday, August 8 and continue until Friday, August 12. You will also want to be sure to check out the Exhibit Hall on Tuesday and Wednesday, and stop by Booth #128 to visit with the staff from Evidence Technology Magazine.

FINGERPRINT EVIDENCE went through a nearly three-year ordeal in the New Hampshire court system, but eventually emerged unscathed. On April 4, 2008, the New Hampshire Supreme Court unanimously reversed the decision of a lower court to exclude expert testimony regarding fingerprint evidence in the case of The State of New Hampshire v. Richard Langill. The case has been remanded back to the Rockingham County Superior Court.
